Open Water Check Out Dives Help Divers Complete Certification with Confidence
Open Water Check Out Dives provide an important step for individuals who have started their open water certification at another location and are ready to complete the practical portion of their training. Designed to transform classroom knowledge and confined water practice into real-world experience, these dives allow participants to demonstrate their skills in an authentic underwater environment while receiving guidance from a professional instructor.
The program focuses on building safety, confidence, and competence through supervised open water sessions. Divers practice essential techniques, including buoyancy control, underwater navigation, and emergency procedures, while learning how to manage real diving conditions. Each session is structured to help participants feel comfortable and capable as they experience the freedom and excitement of underwater exploration.
To support effective learning and skill development, the Check Out Dives are completed over two separate days. This schedule gives divers time to rest, review techniques, and absorb new experiences without feeling rushed. The carefully planned approach allows participants to strengthen safe diving habits while developing greater awareness and control in the water.
By completing the program, divers gain the practical ability and confidence needed to plan and conduct open water dives independently. Beyond fulfilling certification requirements, the experience encourages a deeper appreciation for the marine environment and inspires participants to continue exploring the underwater world with enthusiasm and confidence.

Customer Reviews
I had an absolutely fantastic weekend doing my orientation dive (and fun dives) with Ocean Divers at Killary Fjord! From the moment I arrived every member of staff and all the other divers were incredibly welcoming, friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was supportive and relaxed, making it easy to feel comfortable even if you’re just starting out like me (10 dives previously). There were a lot of divers, but each in small groups with their own dive master or dive instructor and grouped together in the OW/AOW courses or fun dives. While I had already done my OW elsewhere, I’ll definitely be doing the advanced course and further dives with these guys as the level of dedication and commitment that goes into making their students be successful divers is visible. Bring a bit of patience for the initial response period if you reach out during a very busy time - it‘s hard to respond when you’re always in the water 😄 but I honestly can’t recommend them enough if you’re looking to become a good diver and explore Irelands underwater world with a genuinely lovely group of people.
I’m doing the drysuit diver course with Oceandivers at the moment. I was having trouble getting my buoyancy right, so had six pool sessions to get it right at no extra charge!! What a crew Oceandivers have. There was no pressure, just take your time and get it right. Dan is always on hand to help you out and the rest of the lads are so helpful. I had my first sea dive for the buoyancy certification today off Dalkey island. It was fantastic!! The extra lessons really paid off. I cannot recommend the Oceandivers crew highly enough. It is and has been a pleasure working with Oceandivers to get my drysuit certification. Can’t wait to get back in the water with the crew!!
I got my OW course with Oceandivers in the previous two months and they are really professional and helpful. Especially, I would like to thank my instructor Alan, he is really amazing experience diver and nice advisor. Great enjoy my training with him and also thank other instructors, divemasters and staffs from Oceandivers.
